And of all the places in Spain I want to visit, Barcelona is not one of them. Seriously though is it that bad there? Don’t know but Barcelona has just never appealed and I love Spain.
Lol, when i was in Barcelona in a school trip we nearly beat to death someone who was trying to steal a classmate golden chain
I lost my phone in a clothing store in Barcelona 2 years ago. I found out when I was in the Bershka and asked a worker if they happen to find it (they didn’t). Another Spanish man overheard the conversation and was very worried and told me he could translate if I needed to go to the police (a bit dramatic but ok). I went back to the previous store and asked if they found it, and they did! Went back to Bershka to show the worried man my phone and he gave me a hug lol. This was so random. Anyways, was a very nice Barcalona experience.
Barcelona is something else, just a few month ago a friend of mine got “arrested” by 2 guys posing as police officers saying they needed to control his car and papers. One of them was checking the car papers with him while the other one was stealing everything from the trunk :d
Those are their traditions and you shouldn’t be allowed to prevent them from doing it, tourist are killing local culture smh. 😤
Misleading title, please correct: Warcelona.
Seriously here, if avoiding some awful neighborhoods such as “el raval” or taking extra care in places like “plaza cataluña” you should be as fine as in Italy, el raval is kind of your average french city though.
this is why Catalonia has a high GDP per capita, simply theft
Bombardêem a catalunha
I’m from Naples.. is it really that bad? or are they just Muricans?
Invite 3rd world, get 3rd world.
Greetings from Germany, I’m wearing knife-proof clothes these days.
Guys there is a reason for this to happen, let me explain it to you:
*[Removed]*
Two people i know got robbed there twice. The second time, one of them broke a leg trying to fight them off.
Is it just me or all of them Asians? If so, don’t Asians have a habit of carrying their phones on a string?

I feel relaxed everywhere in western Europe. My Brazilian “spider sense” never triggers in those cities people say you should be careful. In Rio de Janeiro my flight-or-fight instincts are activated all the time when I’m outside. Brazilian big cities are so bad for robbery that we kinda develop a 360 chameleon vision and this spider-sense-like ability to perceive danger.
Some friends had their phones and wallets stolen within like 1 hour of arriving a few years ago
When your city is famous for its pickpocketing and fly by nights. It’s crazy.
Barcelona’s centre is basically Rogueport (and the shadow queen is Ada Colau)
Most overrated western city. I don’t understand why people keep going to it
So thats why a white gets cancelled when he steals, its cultural appropriation
I toured Spain by car and always parked in guarded car parks for fear of thieves. As soon as I returned to Italy I stopped in Genoa at the Autogrill two junkies tried to Stealing from my car
